Five-star reviews on Google across all 8 SWITCH clinics
Medicare’s Chronic Disease Management program, sometimes called an EPC or CDM plan, can cover allied health visits each year for people managing an ongoing condition. Your GP decides whether you are eligible and how many visits your plan includes, then writes you a referral.
Bring that referral to your first appointment and we will take care of the rest.
Funding rules can change from time to time. This page was last reviewed in June 2026. For the latest official details, visit Services Australia (Medicare).
Every SWITCH session combines hands-on manual therapy with a personalised exercise program. We treat what is actually causing the pain, not just where you feel it. The assessment is the foundation of everything that follows, so you know exactly what is being treated and why.
SWITCH has been treating Sydney patients for over 10 years. We are a locally-owned, locally-run physiotherapy group with deep roots in the communities each of our 8 clinics serves. Thousands of patients trust SWITCH every year for the kind of care that actually fixes the problem.
No GP referral needed. You can book an initial assessment directly with SWITCH and start treatment the same week. Every injury and recovery timeline is different, but our goal is to help you get back to running, lifting, working or playing sooner.
After your first appointment you will know exactly what your physio thinks is going on, what the treatment journey looks like, and how many sessions to expect. No vague answers, no open-ended commitments. A clear plan from session one.
Early-morning, all-day and late-evening appointments at every SWITCH clinic. Same-week and often same-day availability across the network. Online booking 24/7 at weareswitch.com.au, so you can lock in a time when it suits you.
Penshurst, Maroubra, Concord, Lane Cove, Rouse Hill, Menai, Gladesville and Strathfield. The same standard of care across every location, so you can book wherever fits your day. Treatment notes follow you between clinics if you ever need to switch.
Every SWITCH practitioner is registered with Ahpra and the Physiotherapy Board of Australia. Verify any registration at ahpra.gov.au.
